great amount of similarity of features, and

President Cleveland's family is not the only
Cleveland family in Washington. The city
directory contains the names of ten others,
and the Washington Clevelands are in all
ranks of life, from president down. Charles

Cleveland belongs to the United States navy,
and Cynthia E. Cleveland is a clerk in the

puts himself down as a waiter; Jane Cleve-

in house near the Capitol, and Margaret
Cleveland makes dresses for living; then
there is a Philip b. Cleveland, who has no di-

Cleveland, the president of the United States,

FROM ACROSS THE SEA.
DHULEEP SINGH, THE Willy IN
DIAN, NOT 10 BE FOUND.
The Northern Frontier Not Properly
Protected-No Better Time for a
Russian Attack - Bodyke Evic-
tions Still Going On.

LONDON, June 11.-Lord Dufferin viceroy
Of India, is making an energetic effort to
locate the willy Hindoo known as Dhuleep
Singh, who is supposed to be largely RESPONSE
BILE for dangers which now threaten India.
The treacherous native potentate, it is
thought, would hardly risk himself on Indian
SOIL except in good disguise for the present,
but Lord Duiferin, in recent dispatches, has
expressed the belief that he is either person.
ally or through emissaries stirring up the
Pishin tribes to revolt. These tribes are
greatly excited by the succe %ful rebellion of
the Ghzais.
Dwelling Slst across the frontier from
Afghanistan they partake of many character
istics of these rebelious subjects of the ameer,
and are encouraged by their example to rise
against their own masters, the white men of
England. The larger part of the Anglo
Indian army is concentrated in their vicinity
in consequence, and the northern frontier is
left insuiliciently protected. If Russia wishes
to act upon Dhuleep Sngh's advice and in
wade India no more propltious time coull be
chosen than the present. There are many
who anticipate such movement, but the
closer students q Russian methods take a
different view of the probabilities. That Rus
STA will invade India Is not doubted, but the
history of her past aggressions indicates that
the invasion will he gradual, and one might
almost say apologize. The Russian frontier
has been pushed southwark in this insidious
manner at the expense of Persia and Afghan
istan, the cars shrewd generals simply firing
out opposition by their obstinate, patient, I'M
yielding grip on disputed territory pending
the long drawn out negotiations of diplomats
and boundary commissions 1t is understood
from the reports of travellers that Russian
exploring military expeditions have already
forced themselves across the line into north
ern India at various places and established
some sort of local claim, to be used in
future disputes with England as basis of
settlement of frontiers Such methods are
less expensive as a rule than open war, and
frequently as effective, but they are, in fact,
only preliminary to final war, which is ex-
pected whenever England becomes engaged
in strife elsewhere, which will prevent her
from giving adequate protection to the
threatened frontier.

The Evistions at Bodyke.

DUBLIN, June 11.-Evictons at Bodyke
were resumed today. The first place visited
by the sheriff and his posse was the hut of
Timothy Collins. They found that daugh-
ter of Collins was dying aud they postponed
his eviction, as the physician protested that
that the removal of the sick girl would cause
instant death. The evicting party then pro-
ceeded to Michael O'Callaghan's, where they
met with a terrible resistance from
OCallaghan and some friends who
had barricaded themselves within the
premises. The bailiffs and police, in at
tempting to effect an entrance into the build
ing, were deluged with scalding water and
meal Col. Turner, who succeeded Gen.
Butler in command of the troops, implored
Father Hannah to use his iiAluence with the
tenants to allow the law to take its course,
otherwise he would be compelled to order the
troops to dislodge them and thus cause blood
shed. Father Hannah then took the lead,
with the police following, and the eviction
was effected without further trouble Five
women who were found inside the house
We're arrested, as it was women only who
used the scalding water and meal with such
telling effect upon the evictors.
